Also, I guess if you want to introduce yourself to the thread, you can play a little game where you post five statements, which are four truths and one lie. The rest of us have to guess which one is false.
Ohh, this sounds like fun! Before I start though, is it five facts about anything that has to do with me? Or is it MTGS only or MTG only or what?
Neither do I. Thankfully we can order them online and get them delivered over here. Once a month I stock the freezer up and apart from that I just need to do odd top up trips or if I want something special..
That's pretty much what I do, once every month, month and a half I do a big grocery shop and then here and there I do top ups of small stuff I run out of. Unfortunately today is the big grocery shop day, oh well yay food lol. Doing it online sounds interesting .
As someone pointed out, look at who he is going against. Week 1, he beats Curtis Axel, who isnt top tier by any means, but still a solid wrestler. The important thing to note is that unlike other debuts, its not a "local" wrestler Neville was facing, but a main card guy. Next week, he wrestles the top guy in the company and actually has a back and forth match. Yes, he lost, but he put up a fight and showed that he can stand with the best. His next match was against Curtis Axel and gets a win. This past week, he has another competitive loss.
Essentially, Neville right now is shown as being able to handle mid-carders and be able to hang with the Upper-Mid card to the Main Eventers. Yes, he isnt winning, but right now it doesnt matter. He just debuted and right now is setting in stone some things, so that if he gets pushed later, we at least have a "Oh well, a couple months ago, he was hanging with Main Eventers in matches, so it makes sense he is in the title picture."
I absolutely agree. He isn't winning but his matches have been fantastic and showcased Neville's strong points (like the 360 splash from the barricade, for example). I am much happier with his debut this way rather than him put up against low card guys that no one cares about and winning in under five minutes.
I also liked Roman Reign's promo on Raw. People can say what they want but he is getting better all the time, and he looked a lot more comfortable than he did a few months ago, even with the crowd hammering him.
Sorry fr my tardy welcome. I tried to respond twice, actually, but "non-Latin unicode characters are temporarily not allowed," and I was too tired to try to correct my posts.
If you go here you can request to be put on a list so you do not get that problem :). Hope this helps!
What kinds of decks do you usually like to play? (i.e., aggro, control, or combo? some combination of those?)
Thanks!
And umm, it just depends on the format I suppose . I love the color blue so I tend to lean towards tempo or control but I do like aggro if it involves red .
It's nice to see you too here! If you want any help with deck building, you have come to right place!
Out of curiosity: How familiar are you with EDH?
Thanks! I figure I'd see how Lamia's Intet deck looks like and go from there and make one taking notes from her list. I don't really want to go outside of Modern cards too too much since that's the card pool I'd be able to work from and that may hinder me a little, but that's okay I want to play EDH because it looks fun, win or lose .
And I am pretty much brand new with EDH, I played a little bit of it back in 2009 but it's been so long now!
I'd be happy to help you darling! If you let me know what interactions you're struggling with, I can try and explain them to you. Also, here is the current commander banned list. or at least, where to find it.
Really I am just confused how generals interact with removal (both damage and exile) and counterspells, I heard they changed something recently? And general damage is 21 right? Or am I remembering stuff that doesn't exist? lol
Also, for Intet, you can play her a few different ways, but you probably want some scry if you mean to take advantage of her ability. If you want, when I get back from class, I can share my current Intet decklist with you. One of the main strategies I'm trying to build around is having essentially a hand of free counterspells gotten off her ability. If you want, I can help you build a cool Intet deck!
That would be super cool of you if you don't mind .
-edit-
Nevermind the first part of my post, your link was incredibly helpful . But yes, I'd love to see your decklist and such .
It's been amazing outside here the last few days, yesterday it was nice enough to even wear shorts! I love Spring time . More rain later tonight and some rest of this week which is no fun but I am so glad winter is gone.
Thursday I am going to the new card shop to play Modern and that has me a bit nervous, I hope I don't chicken out lol. Ideally I go and make some new friends, so here's hoping!

(Hope I did this right! lol)
For some reason, I don't think you are kidding lol.
I was thinking more like Bant but there is one G/W general I would love to play..
Captain Sisay would make me all kinds of giddy. I love tool box type decks.
Ohh, this sounds like fun!
That card scares me to death, I like playing my instants on my opponents turn!
But.. That being said I'd totally love Dragonlord Dromoka if I was the one casting it
Tomorrow going to the new card shop, that'll be exciting.
Putting us control players next to each other? Oh, you are just askinggggggg for trouble
Thanks!
